Eat Clean. Get Lean. Create Routine.
If it doesn't CHALLENGE you, it won't CHANGE you.
Welcome to our 30 Day OTG Transformation Challenge! It includes Fitness, Nutrition AND Lifestyle components. We are normally focused on nutrition and exercise, but often neglect the ever-so-important lifestyle components - like stress and sleep. And these are the ones that affect our health the most! Here, we're making it part of our Challenge to help you develop some healthy habits and integrate them into your daily routine.

BF%/Measurements/Photos
You have 2 options:
1. We will find your BF% based on only 2 measurements - Your Waist (with a tape measure parallel to the ground just above the naval at point of full exhalation) and your bodyweight.
2. You can schedule an appointment with Dr. Brian Sokalsky to use is InBody (BIA device - much more accurate than #1). It only takes a few minutes and their office hours for the Somers Point office are Monday 8-6, Wed 8-1, Thur 10-6 and Fri 8-1. Call 904-2565.

Meditation + Appreciation
The benefits of Meditation are as broad as they are deep. It's amazing what a little scheduled time to be with oneself can do for you. Here we'll be combining a 10 Min Meditation session (Instructions and app info included) along with 5 Appreciation Statements each day.
At least 10mins + 5 Statements - 5 points
At least 5mins + 5 Statements - 3 points.

The most underrated of all of the above, yet the most beneficial. The only real opportunity our body gets to work on itself - without 'outside' distractions.

Nick
1. How will I be scored?
Each component (Nutrition, Hydration, Exercise, etc) will have a point value associated with it. The top 2 athletes (1 male and 1 female) with the highest score at the end wins! There will also be a second place prize for each gender.
2. I don't have a lot of fat/weight to lose, is this for me?
Yes! This is an accountability challenge to help develop solid nutrition, exercise and lifestyle habits that will transcend the 30 days.
3. Will I have to count calories?
No. You will be asked to choose foods from The Ultimate Food Spectrum: Superior, Suitable, Second-Rate and Shoddy. Our goal is to live in the Superior food choices. Eating at the higher end will earn you more points each day.
You may count calories and/or follow a macro-based nutrition plan, but we'll be focused primarily on quality over quantity in this challenge. If you wanted a guideline for weight loss via Macros - you could follow C/P/F - 40/30/30 or 30/40/30 with most of your complex carbs for the day being eaten post-wod. After registering, check out the Nutrition section for portions and potential amounts.
4. How long do I have to Meditate each day?
10 MIns/day + 5 Appreciation Statements for full point total, 5 Mins/day + 5 Appreciation Statements for minimum point total
Each day's score is based on completion of time frame in one sitting.
5. Are all sections weighted the same?
Yes. Each is fundamentally as important as the other.
6. How are you measuring BF %?
There is no 'real' way to accurately measure this outside of a Dexascan or an extremely expensive BIA device (see below as Option #2). This is a baseline measurement and will be used to compare your 1st and last measurements.
1.We will find your BF% based on only 2 measurements - Your Waist (with a tape measure parallel to the ground just above the naval at point of full exhalation) and your bodyweight.
7. When can I get my measurements done?
Schedule a time with a coach before or after a session. It won’t take more than 2 mins!
